One of the most troublesome things in life is that what you do or do not want has very little to do with what does or does not happen…You might want to marry someone you love very much, but something could happen that would prevent the two of you from ever seeing one another again. You might want to find out something important about your parents, but something could happen that would mean wouldn’t find out for some time. And you might want, at a particular moment, for a crystal ball not to fall off a table and shatter into a thousand pieces, and even if it happened that the crystal ball did shatter, you might want the sound not to attract anyone’s attention. But the sad truth is that the sad truth is sad, and that what you want does not matter.

To forget a friend is sad. Not every one has had a friend. And if I forget him, I may become like the grown−ups who are no
longer interested in anything but figures..

Let everything happen to you
Beauty and terror
Just keep going
No feeling is final.

I have nothing now but praise for my life. I’m not unhappy. I cry a lot because I miss people. They die and I can’t stop them. They leave me and I love them more…
Maurice Sendak (via serialstranger)
